Greetings! I took part in an interesting conversation
recently. Two questions were asked. What would people say defines you based on
your beliefs? What would people say defines you based on your behaviors? For the latter, other people said the answer
for me was The Streak. That’s a good
answer and I am happy that people think of my behaviors as linked to health and
fitness. Next, month The Streak will
be twenty (20) years old. That is a great deal of my adult life.
As to my beliefs, the answers varied in the conversation. No
one in this group knew that a few years ago, I did a reflection activity and
established four core values for myself. I try to be mindful of them every day.
The four core values are Calmness, Moderation, Tolerance and Compassion. Honestly,
I struggle with tolerance more than the others. I continue to strive for
improvement, as I feel tolerance is important.
I’ve heard it said, “You have to stand for something or you
will fall for anything.” What would people say defines you based on your
beliefs? What would people say defines you based on your behaviors?
Have core values. Run.
Tom
